Celebrate a Summer Evening at Twilight at the Tower

The Crooked River Lighthouse invites visitors to Twilight at the Tower on Friday, September 25 from 7:00-9:00 pm ET in Carrabelle, FL. This relaxing evening event offers after-hours museum visits, gift shop browsing, twilight tower climbs, and the peaceful natural surroundings of St. George Sound and Carrabelle Beach as evening falls. Admission is free. Evening climbs are $6 for the public, free for current members and free for kids 12 and under with a ticketed adult.

The Keeper’s House Museum will be open for special evening hours, featuring the lighthouse’s original Fourth Order Fresnel lens, constructed in Paris, France, in 1894. Visitors can also browse the lighthouse gift shop for unique nautical gifts and souvenirs. The Beacon Bistro will offer baked goodies, popcorn, and refreshments by donation. Guests are encouraged to kick back, relax on the lighthouse grounds, and enjoy a delightful evening beneath the summer sky as the Corn Moon rises over the Forgotten Coast.

For those looking for an unforgettable view, twilight tower climbs provide a chance to experience the tallest lighthouse on the Forgotten Coast from the top. Climbers can take in panoramic views of St. George Sound, Carrabelle Beach, and the beautiful colors of the horizon as dusk settles over the coast.

Advance climb tickets are encouraged. Evening climbs are scheduled at 15-minute intervals and all climbers must be at least 44 inches tall. Climb tickets and additional details are available in the gift shop or online.
